I've had a retina problem in one eye for two years and now I'm almost blind in that eye I can only see shadows. I've seen several retina specialists but they all say there's no treatment available. Is retina transplant surgery an option for my condition? Are there any other treatments I could try?

While a retina transplant isn't currently a standard treatment for vision loss, there are other potential options and avenues to explore. It's important to understand that treatment for retinal diseases depends on the specific cause and severity of the condition

my right eye has advanced stage glaucoma and im really worried - is there any treatment without surgery or if surgery is the only option how much would it cost

For advanced glaucoma, non-surgical options include prescription eye drops, oral medications, and laser treatments to lower eye pressure. If these are not effective or if vision loss progresses despite them, surgery might be necessary. Glaucoma surgery can't cure or reverse vision loss, but it can help protect vision and prevent further damage

My left eye has high myopia at 19D and my right eye is at 4D. I was recommended ICL surgery but waiting a year since my power isn't stable my left eye changed from 18D to 19D. Now I'm noticing double vision sometimes with this new prescription. Will this get better on its own or could it be something more serious?
